Movie Master

Making movies is a great way to display knowledge and understanding. Good educational movies include a combination of audio, video clips, still images, text and even background music. The focus here is on originality and you are responsible for ensuring that the content you create is in your own style. Doing this allows you to get your message across while letting your individual personality shine through, too. Tip: Google and YouTube are your friends! If you are unsure of how to do something when making a movie, there are numerous tutorials online! (Alternatively come to the Tech Bar- we are happy to help)
